LARGE SCALE DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR CHRISTIAN LIFE CATHEDRAL
1285 MI L AP ROAD - RED DIXON
The first item for review was the Large Scale Development Plan for Christian Life
Cathedral submitted by Red Dixon and represented by Dave Jorgensen of Jorgensen
& Associates for property located at 1285 Millsap Road and zoned R-1, Low Density
Residential.
TOM MCELROY - SOUTHWESTERN BELL TELEPHONE
McElroy stated that the large scale development part of the project is no
problem. However, they will need easements in the area of the concept plan shown
on this, but he would rather wait until they get ready to do it. There will be
no problem with serving it.
RICK EVANS - ARKANSAS WESTERN GAS
Evans stated that they will feed off of Millsap Road for the large scale
development. As far as the concept plan, their is a proposed 6" waterline on
the east side of the property. They would need an easement there if there isn't
already one. McElroy stated that there is already a 20' to 25' easement on that
side. They will work with them on what they need on the concept plan.
MICKEY JACKSON - FIRE CHIEF
Jackson stated that they will need the fire hydrant in front of the building on
the large scale development plan directly west of where it is shown. At such
time as the concept plan is developed, they will need a couple more hydrants in
there. He noted that he has some concerns about the length of the deadend line
coming off of another one that is already questionable. That is a matter for
a different time.

LARRY WINKLER - SWEPCO
Winkler stated that they will not need any additional easements. They have
service to the existing structure, but they may have to move the meter to a new
location. On property where the concept plan is shown is in the Ozarks Electric
district. The section line that runs north and south is the territory line
between the two electric companies.
JIM GROWNOVER - OZARKS ELECTRIC
Crownover stated that he doesn't see any real problems with the concept plan.
He noted that they will work with them as they get farther along with their plan.
PERRY FRANKLIN - TRAFFIC SUPERINTENDENT
Franklin stated that he will need the square footages of the two buildings on
the large scale development so that he can do a traffic projection. He noted
that on the concept plat, it is a long ways back into that cul-de-sac and he
would need to know how many elderly residential units they propose.
• DON BUNN - CITY ENGINEER
•
Bunn stated that they need to show the existing easements and right-of-ways on
the plat of the large scale development plan. He asked if the parking shown was
new or is now existing. Mr. Jorgensen stated that part of it is existing; the
part that is south of the line that cuts across diagonally from the southwest
corner of the new structure.
Bunn stated that on the concept plat, the Planning Commission will be discussing
the potential ties to other developments and the tie to the North to A.W. Realty
seems feasible. There would need to be some provision there to go to the North.
The other would be a possible tie on to the East. He noted that there is a big
ravine to the East that would make a tie expensive and the staff will look at
this closer. He advised that if this is a P.U. D., they can't make a tie -
through. If a tie -through is needed, it would eliminate the possibility of doing
it as a P.U.D. or at least use a private street. This isn't really the type
of development that the P.U.D. ordinance was designed for.
Bunn requested that in addition to the notification that they make per Code,
that they please notify the caretakers of the cemetery and be sure that they have
a copy of the plat. This should be in letter form, although they can still do
a notice in the paper for the large scale development. Mr. Jorgensen stated that
he talked with the caretakers in person already and gave them a plat. Bunn
stated that would be adequate.

LARGE SCALE DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR MINI -STORAGE
LAWRENCE STARR - E SIDE OF N COL.LPL E, N OF TOWNSHIP
The second item to review was the large scale development plan for Mini -Storage
submitted by Lawrence Starr and represented by Mel Milholland of Milholland
Engineers for property located on the east side of North College, north of
Township and zoned C-2, Thoroughfare Commercial.
DON BUNN - CITY ENGINEER
Bunn stated that this is a revision of a large scale development plat that was
presented several weeks ago. The difference is that the area involved in the
mini -storage has been reduced because of the failure to get a rezoning for the
R-0 and R-1 property. Also, the entrance that goes into this has been moved a
little bit.
Bunn advised that mini -storage is a conditional use in a C-2 zone and that
petition will go to the September 11th meeting.
Bunn stated that they will have a water meter for the office. He asked if they
plan to provide any other water. Mr. Starr answered, no.
In answer to a question from Don Bunn, Mel Milholland stated that they notified
the adjoining property owners last time. Mr. Bunn advised that they will be
required to renotify the adjoining property owners since this is coming through
again.
Bunn advised that the same comments about hillside development, etc. that were
made with the first large scale development plat here would apply to this one.
TOM MCELIROY - SOUTHWESTERN BELL TELEPHONE
McElroy asked if the office space is also going to be a residence. Mr. Starr
answered, yes. McElroy advised that there is an existing easement in there.
He noted that he will probably come in the same way the power company is.
LARRY WINKLER - SWEPCO
Winkler stated that they have an existing line that comes up off of Highway 71
up the north side of the existing drive until the drive cuts back. He noted that
at the earlier meeting with the other plat on this, he had said they would just
drop a service from the pole close to the office and give service to the house
and office which would be the only service they would need. He advised that they
do have an overhead line that continues on east up to the Brophy Addition if they
need another meter set. They shouldn't need any additional easements. He asked
about security lighting. Mr. Starr stated that they will be putting in their
own security lighting but they will not be allowing anyone in at night.

RICK EVANS - ARKANSAS WESTERN GAS
He asked if they are going to need any gas to the office. Mr. Starr answered,
no. Evans stated then that the only thing he is concerned with is when they
start cutting the road, contact them so that they can locate their existing line
for them.
MICKEY JACKSON - FIRE CHIEF
Jackson stated that he is glad they changed this because he was a little uneasy
after the last meeting about the prospect of trying to protect that with one fire
hydrant. Since this has been changed, they will be required to put in two fire
hydrants to meet the State Fire Code Requirements. The provision is that there
has to be a hydrant within 500' of any portion of any building. He noted that
mini -storage have a bad representation across the country as far as fires because
you can't control what people put in them. There have been rapidly spreading
fires involving hazardous materials, etc. He advised that their lease agreements
with the users of the storage units should state that they agree not to store
hazardous materials in these units.
PERRY FRANKLIN - TRAFFIC SUPERINTENDENT
Franklin asked how many storage units they are proposing. Mr...Starr stated that
is real hard to say because this project will be in phases. For a ballpark
figure they will probably have between 450 to 475 units. The square footage will
be about 65,190 square feet.
ELAINE CATTANEO - CITY PLANNING SECRETARY
Cattaneo advised them that they will need to submit another 15 copies of this
plat to the Planning Office by the 18th of September.
